Local doctor finds unique role at LPGA tournament
Northborough's Dr. Frank Domino shares his experience volunteering as the on-call physician for the LPGA Tour event.
Dr. Frank Domino, a 66-year-old doctor from Northborough, Massachusetts, has found a unique role at the LPGA Championship at TPC Boston last weekend. As one of over 800 volunteers, he served as the on-site, on-call tournament physician for the players and their families. Dr. Domino, an attending physician and professor at UMass Chan Medical School, had volunteered for the past two FM Championships, assisting players with minor health concerns and answering 10-15 phone calls each day.
He also appreciated the chance to watch LPGA Tour stars Nelly Korda and Brooke Henderson, who were both cordial and chatty during their rounds. Dr. Domino, who grew up in New Jersey and has lived in Northborough for 30 years, credits chance encounters and a willingness to help for his diverse career path, including a stint as a swimming instructor and a medical school admission success story.
He plans to continue volunteering at the FM Championship and encourages fans to attend the tournament, praising the smooth organization and the quality of the players.
